E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether the overall response rate (ORR) in the experimental arm (400 mg) is non-inferior to the control arm (600 mg) based on local tumor assessments (RECIST version1.1) for all patients that have been treated for at least 6 months or have discontinued the study treatment. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Key secondary objective is to evaluate QTc (with Fridericia's correction) prolongation in the experimental arm. Other secondary objectives include safety and tolerability, progression-free survival, clinical benefit rate, time to response, duration of response, pharmacokinetics of ribociclib when given in combination with NSAI.

E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
• Patient has advanced (loco-regionally recurrent or metastatic) breast cancer not amenable to curative therapy. • Patient has a histologically and/or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of ER-positive and/or PgR-positive breast cancer based on the most recently analyzed tissue sample, and all tested by local laboratory. • Patient has HER2-negative breast cancer defined as a negative in situ hybridization test or an IHC status of 0, 1+ or 2+. If IHC is 2+, a negative in situ hybridization (FISH, CISH, or SISH) test is required by local laboratory testing and based on the most recently analyzed tissue sample. • Patient must have measurable disease, i.e., at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST version 1.1. (a lesion in a previously irradiated site may only be counted as a target lesion if there is clear evidence of progression since the irradiation). • Patient has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1. • Standard 12-lead ECG values defined as the mean of the triplicate ECGs and assessed by the central laboratory: - QTcF interval at screening < 450 ms (QT interval using Fridericia's correction) - Mean resting heart rate 50 to 90 bpm (determined from the ECG) • Women of childbearing potential (CBP), defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, must have confirmed negative serum pregnancy test (for β- hCG) within 14 days prior to randomization. • Women of CBP must be willing to use highly effective methods of contraception.
Please refer to Section 5.1 of the protocol for full details on inclusion criteria. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
• Patient with symptomatic visceral disease or any disease burden that makes the patient ineligible for endocrine therapy per the investigator's judgment. • Patient who received any prior systemic anti-cancer therapy (including endocrine therapy, chemotherapy, prior CDK4/6 inhibitors) for aBC. Patients who received neo-/adjuvant therapy for breast cancer are eligible. • Patient is concurrently using other anti-cancer therapy. • Patient has had major surgery within 14 days prior to starting study drug or has not recovered from major toxicities. • Patient has received extended-field radiotherapy ≤ 4 weeks or limited field radiotherapy ≤ 2 weeks prior to randomization, and has not recovered to grade 1 or better from related side effects of such therapy (with the exception of alopecia or other toxicities not considered a safety risk for the patient at investigator's discretion). • Patient has a concurrent malignancy or malignancy within 3 years of the randomization date, with the exception of adequately treated basal or squamous cell skin carcinoma, or curatively resected cervical carcinoma in situ. • Patients with central nervous system (CNS) involvement unless they meet specific stability criteria. • Patient has clinically significant, uncontrolled heart disease and/or cardiac repolarization abnormality. • Patient is currently receiving or has received systemic corticosteroids ≤ 2 weeks prior to starting study drug, and has not fully recovered from side effects of such treatment.
Please refer to Section 5.2 of the protocol for details on exclusion criteria. |
